The news also comes with concern about filliny what could add up to thousands of jobs createe throughthe work, suppliers say. Spirit last week announced planz to build anew 375,000-square-foot factory to accommodatr the manufacturing and testing of the Columbus And the company plans to hire 700 workers for that work as well as existinh products and other programs, says Debbie Gann, Spiriy spokeswoman. Cessna is investing $780 milliom into developing the Columbus, includinvg building a new plant in Wichit and hiring morethan 1,000 new employees.
That has locakl subcontractors trying to land a share ofthat “We are putting together quotese now,” says Peter vice president of Centedr Industries Corp., which already makes parts for all of Cessna’ss aircraft and does some work for Spirit. “My goal is to buildx those parts forthe Columbus.” Dependinbg on the size of the Jonas says Center may have to hire more Carl Best, president of , supplies interiors for some Cessnaz aircraft and figures the company is a likely candidate to supply the interior for the “We believe we will have a good opportunity to win the business for the furniture and the airplane interior,” Best says.
The compant already is building theColumbus mock-uop for the ’s conference next month, he says. If the compant is awarded the contract, it likely will have to hire 30 to 50 more Best says. With or without the Cessnwa contract, Precision already planned on hirint about 100 new workers next Doug Oliver, Cessna says it’s too early to tell which localo suppliers could be tapped. “Certainly, it’z always a possibility when you look at a new producty and how tosource it, you go to the high-performing companies that you currently already have a relationship he says. Gann says the company is lookint at the best way to handleextrqa work.
“We are looking at how much we are goinfg to make inside and can we produce it more cost effectivelgy or is it somethingg that our supply base can buildfor us,” she The company has about 600 suppliersw worldwide, including 100 in Kansas — 73 of whicy are in Wichita, Gann says. The economic trickle down from buildinv the Columbus in Wichita is difficulto calculate. However, the uses a multiplierr that suggests for every job created at placew such as Spiritand Cessna, 2.91 jobs are createdr in the community. Those jobs could be in retail, restaurant or elsewhere. “I can’t tell you specifically what thos ejobs are,” says Vicki Pratt GWEDC president.
“But the more people you have they have more moneyto spend. So the service in addition tothe suppliers, all becom e part of the multiplier effect.”
